Indians Figure US Owes Them Billions; Full Citizenship By ED JOHNSON BROWNING, Mont., Nov. 20 (!') The American Indian socks a creator place in the sun and he's taking active steps to get it. He says ha Js denied benefits and rights granted other Ameri can citizens and wants Uncle Sam to pay some $3,000,000,000 In settlement of treaties, "neg lected for more than 150 years." The Indians are watching closely a bill in congress which would create an Indian claims commission to investigate claims and "bring, within a rca- : sonable period of time, a report which would conclude once and for all this chapter of our . national history." ; i An active champion of the cause is District Judge. N. B. Johnson, a Cherokee, , who is president of the National Con- ' gress of American Indians, which met here recently. "The real story behind the i Indians' claims is never reveal ed in public, where the people might have an opportunity to Judge the case on its merits," the Oklahoman says. "Today there are more than . $1,500,000,000 In claims on file against the government. Many of these are legal and valid, others have a strong moral ap peal to the conscience."

The whole thing started back in 1778 when the white man began making treaties and agreements with Indians in his westward migration. Most of the lamer tribes in the United States have banded tosether in the National Con' cress of American Indians to chamnlon their cause. More than 200 delegates from tribes in 20 states attended the coneress' second annual conven- tion at this scenic northwestern Montana Blackfeet reservation community and came off with a determination to better the lot of their people. Their spokesmen said the congress plans to: Educate the public as to the true status of the Indian; Build up a system of higher education among themselves; Get the Indian liquor law re pealed; Promote an Indian for U. S. commissioner of Indian affairs, and see that their war veterans are "eligible for all advantages in the G. I. Bill of Rights."
